Villarreal midfielder Marcos Senna has welcomed interest from Barcelona.
Barca are reportedly considering the signing of Senna as cover for defensive midfielder Sergio Busquets and as a low-cost replacement for Yaya Toure, who recently joined Manchester City.
"For me it's an honour and a dream that Barca are thinking of me," he told Spanish reporters on Villarreal's pre-season tour in Ireland.
"There's nothing yet, but just the fact they are thinking of me is an honour."
Senna is 34 and his agent says a move to the Nou Camp would be the perfect way for the player to end his career.
"It would be the crowning moment of his sporting career," Eli Coimbra told El Mundo Deportivo.
And the player's representative is certain a deal could be struck between the two clubs.
"I'm certain that if Barca speak to Villarreal, the club's directors won't put up any obstacles to stop him from leaving," he said.
"In these eight years at the club, Senna has never had a problem with the club. On the contrary, he has always been very professional and they would understand that going to Barca would be a unique opportunity."
